Package: mplayer
Version: 1.0~rc2-14
Severity: important


Hello,

I had a problem with playback so I tried to upgrade to newer mplayer.
However, the only thing that I can tell for sure after the upgrade is
that there is a large preformance gap between 1.0~rc2-8+lenny1 and 1.0~rc2-14.

The same H.264+AAC file would play at 60%-70% cpu with the older release
and 90%-100%+ (unusable) with the newer release on the same system.

Excerpt from /proc/cpuinfo:

model name  : Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU          420  @ 1.60GHz

Version: 1.0~rc2-16

hi

FFMpeg-debian compiling flags were improved; so
I did some benchmarks this morning

I tested mplayer SVN 27354 (compiled without forcing configure, that is, with
 'gcc -O4 -march=native -mtune=native -pipe -ffast-math -fomit-frame-pointer')
versus mplayer 1.0~rc2-16 in Debian (that is compiled with ./configure
--enable-debug , so it uses 'gcc -O2 ' - but do not forget that
 ffmpeg libraries are shared linked, and compiled on their own package)

I tested on some sample files from http://samples.mplayerhq.hu/ 

the results seems to be that there is no noticeable difference in speed

more precisely, I tested speed on the following files
 http://mirror.linux.org.au/pub/linux.conf.au/2008/Fri/mel8-139.ogg
 http://www.flashingtwelve.brickfilms.com/TTC/data/Mirko_The_Artist.ogg
 http://samples.mplayerhq.hu/Matroska/x264_no-b-frames.mkv
 http://samples.mplayerhq.hu/MPEG2/dvd.mpeg
and other files I have here, with fourcc = 
  mp4v  , mp4v from divx4,  H264 , WMV3 , WMV1

the only difference is in /MPEG2/dvd.mpeg , were mplayer/SVN uses
ffmpeg , that is faster; but if I add '-vc ffmpeg2' then the speed
of mplayer/debian is the same

a.
